William H.Harvey Co. 017072-500 017072B-500 Seal Tape, 260 x 1/2"

2025-05-24. Seal tape by William H. Harvey Co. ½-inch × 216-inches. White.It's plumbers tape, not much more to say about it. Also know as Teflon® tape, it's a slippery, non-adhesive tape that is used to seal and lubricate threaded pipe connections. It creates a watertight seal by filling in the gaps between the threads and preventing leaks. The tape itself doesn't stick to the threads or the pipe, and it's super thin and stretchy to ensure a good seal is made.But there are more uses than just for plumbing related tasks. Teflon® tape provides lubrication and creates a tight seal when the connection is screwed together. For this reason Teflon® tape has many uses, but the key is that it's for threaded applications. It also comes in different widths so there a tape for every job out there. I actually purchased this for my trampoline. The vertical bars are 2-pieces and connected via a threaded screw. Over the years, the pilot holes have widened and now my screws that hold the two bars together freely rotate. Since I can't shrink the size of the pilot holes, the only thing I can do is widen the screws. Problem is, I only need it widened every so slightly. This plumbers tape did the job! Price of new upper pole: $35, price of Teflon® tape: 98¢... it's a no brainer.Bottom line, plumbers tape can be used to tighten any fitting. Loose toilet seat? Thread the screws with this tape for a better fit. Leaky garden hose? Loose washing machine hoses? Leaky faucets, shower heads, well, you get the picture...Note: this is not to replace the need for fixing plumbing issues. If you have a major plumbing concern, by all means seek the help of a professional. The uses I mentioned above are for minor issues, small repairs that you can do yourself with little to no education about plumbing. These issues naturally occur over time via wear and tear. Remember, a water leak is usually a sign that something needs to be replaced. Faucets have a system of gaskets and valves that will eventually need replacing over time (I recently replaced the water valve of my shower faucet.) The use of this type of tape is complementary to proper functioning water systems, not as a means of repair.

It works well. I bought it on sale. Thanks.

Does what it's meant to. Easy to use, and comes with a cover for clean, convenient storage. Great.

Seems to be good quality and durable

Good purchase for price

I felt it was a little too brittle but it worked just fine.

Good
